Quick answer
We handle slab leaks, AC condensate overflows, burst pipes and wet carpet in Burbank homes. Crews come from our Downtown Los Angeles office at any hour. Many Burbank houses are mid-century and built on slabs. So we read the concrete as well as the walls before deciding what has to come up.
Burbank
Mid-century houses on slabs
A slab floor hides water well. A leaking hot water line under the concrete can spread under carpet and flooring for days before anyone notices a warm spot or a damp edge.
Summer brings the other common Burbank call: an air conditioner running hard and a clogged condensate line. Water then spills from an attic or closet unit into the ceiling or floor below. Before the next quake, see how to strap a water heater and flex its lines.
Burbank
Old slabs and record heat
The median Burbank property was built in 1952, against 1960 for Los Angeles County as a whole. So many homes here have original lines running through or under the slab. Burbank also gets very hot: it tied its all-time record of 114 degrees on September 5, 2020. Old slab lines and air conditioners working flat out are why slab leaks and AC overflows top our Burbank call list.

How a Burbank call runs
Call with your address and tell the dispatcher where the floor is wet or warm. If you suspect a slab leak, close the main water valve until the plumber has found it.
The crew maps moisture across the slab and walls, lifts flooring only as far as the wet edge, and dries the concrete with mats and dehumidifiers until readings match a dry reference.
